i love all animals except from snakes.i am not even afraid of cockroaches, rats, or big animals like elephants but i am really afraid of them.they are the creepiest thing on earth for me which gives me goosebumps everytime i see them even on tv. so imagine how i react when i see them personally. i turn pale but i can't scream which makes it more difficult. if you hate me, just give me a snake as a gift..

I always have the thought of the African animals,I would be terrified if I was stuck in an African jungle.A person definately would get attacked by something out there.Night timie in the jungle would be even scarier,because thats when those animals do most of their hunting.

I am not afraid of snakes like most of you. I've handled dozens of types and some were venomous and some were not. I've even handled one of the largest snakes, the reticulated python. I've been in caves that were crawling with huge spiders and centipedes that could kill me in minutes and no fear, just alertness. But earwigs and maggots! ARRRRRGH! They both just make me want to vomit and make my skin crawl. I really really can't handle silverfish either. I think it's the almost alien way that they move. Gross!

There are some animals which you are afraid because they can cause danger to your life. I am afraid of snakes because my interaction with them is not so good.So specises of spiders are also make me afraid of.

Hi,you said that you love nearly all animals . Then I guess you won't understand that I am afraid of dogs. Since I was very young, I was scared of dogs. I don't know why dogs always like to follow me. I always think they will bite me. And unfortunately, I was bitten by the dog of my neighbour's. Oh, you can imagine how my face turned pale. The dog was big and it bit my hand deeply. I thought I was going to die. Several months after that, I still dreamed of being bitten by dogs. So now, whenvere I see dogs, I just want to change my route to avoid being hurt by them. I know some dogs are really faithful and funny, but I am really scared of them. I like cats more than dogs. Cats won't hurt me. :)

I am afraid if snakes, rats, bats. I do not even like to come across a garden snake. When a commercial on the movie Snake in the airplane would come on tv I would change channel that is one movie I do not want to see.

I'm also afraid of snakes. I'm also afraid of crocks, bears, wolves and foxes. I love to have lions and tigers (only those who are young and not so wild) as my pets!

I'm deadly afraid of rats, mice, snakes, spiders, skunks and bears. I'm sure there are more but can't think of it at this time.
